[PATCH] ntp: Make time_esterror and time_maxerror static

From: john stultz

Inspired by Richard's earlier email, I noticed the ntp.c has a few
global values that could be static. This trivial patch cleans that up.

thanks

Make time_esterror and time_maxerror static as no one uses them outside
of ntp.c
